I don’t care that they’re not interested in what I do, but I feel humiliated and hurt when they act so dismissive of it to other people.
It happened again a few days ago, while I was out with my family at an event. A family member intentionally messed up the name of my workplace multiple times while talking to a volunteer. Although I managed to step in, it’s still weighing on me. I have tried explaining what I do numerous times. It’s not confusing. I have even suggested they use broader alternatives . Nothing has changed. I’m left wondering if this runs deeper than a joke and they don’t actually take me seriously.
Please share some thoughts about answering the phone on speaker. My lifelong friend does this. Sometimes I’m aware her husband is in the room. Recently, though, we were on speaker phone when she told me she was going to the beauty salon. When the call connected to her vehicle, I assumed she was by herself. We continued our VERY personal conversation until she got to her destination. That’s when she told me THEY had arrived! I didn’t realize anyone else was in the car.
